My brothers best friend is my second chance
“Quit staring at me,” I warned, glaring up at him.
“Staring how?” he murmured, closing the distance with a slow, cocky smirk. “Like I can’t decide whether to kiss you… or completely ruin you?”
“Keep dreaming,” I shot back, praying he couldn’t hear how hard my heart was pounding. “You don’t do anything to me.”
A low laugh escaped him as he caged me against the wall.
“And yet, here you are… still looking at me. Still forgetting how to breathe every time I get too close.”
He leaned down until his lips brushed my ear.
“So tell me, Pigeon… are you afraid of me… or afraid you’ll fall for me?”

Chapter: 008- The snake in my room~Abby The message sat on my cracked phone screen like a slap. Emma: I’m sorry, Abby. I wanted to tell you but I didn’t know how to. Sorry? That’s what she was going to say now, that she didn’t know how to tell me this but she knew exactly how to send me a video of my boyfriend with anoher woman? I rolled my eyes as I typed back to her. Me: Maybe not walking onto that stage with a glowing smile while the entire pack watched you so close to getting engaged to my almost boyfriend would have been a better way to show regret. Maybe not sitting across from me night after night, pretending to be the perfect roommate while I spilled every painful detail about Travis and then Nick, would’ve shown some actual care. I was done typing, but taking a second look at it now, I couldn’t say that to her. I cleared it with my fingers still hovering over the screen and my mind searching for the most satisfying comeback of all time. “You’re a snake. Pretty packaging doesn’t change what

Chapter: 007- The betrayalAbby’s POV The sharp ring of Nick’s phone cut through the heavy silence in the kitchen. I swallowed hard and watched him grab it, almost relieved for the interruption. “Saved by the bell,” he muttered under his breath before answering. “Yeah?” His expression shifted in seconds. First of all it was surprise, and then it changed into something darker… Worry. “Yes, sir. I’m on my way.” That was all that he said before he ended the call and turned to Noah, jaw tight. “That was my father. He wants me at the pack grounds right now. He sounded… serious.” Noah straightened immediately. “Okay then, let me come with you.” “Good.” Nick said. They both moved toward the door. I stepped in front of them before they could leave. “I’m coming too.” I said fast. “No,” Noah said firmly. “Stay here.” “Don’t.” My voice came out softer than I wanted, but I didn’t back down. “Don’t treat me like a child. I have every right to know what’s happening in the pack too.” Noah looked at Nick. It was

Chapter: 006- Looking out for youAbby’s POV I spent the entire day stuck beside Lily while she acted like the faint red marks on her cheeks had been left by a wild animal. The nurse kept glancing at me like I was some kind of monster, even though the marks would have faded on their own by tomorrow. Lily had Alpha blood. Her body healed faster than most. Yet everyone still treated her like a fragile princess. The memory alone made my stomach turn. My wolf, prowled restlessly inside me, full of pure hatred. She wanted nothing more than to tear Lily apart. The moment I stepped into the house, the rich smell of meatballs and pasta hit me. My stomach growled loudly. I dropped my bag on the couch and walked toward the kitchen, then nearly lost my balance. Nick stood at the stove, completely shirtless. Grey sweatpants hung low on his hips. Every time he moved, the hard lines of his back and shoulders flexed under the light. He looked unfairly perfect. “A week-long suspension,” his deep voice said without turning ar

Chapter: 005- The price of truthAbby’s POV “You told him nothing?!” Emma’s voice rose so high that a few potato chips flew out of her mouth. She dropped into the cafeteria seat like the air had been knocked out of her. “Are you serious right now?” I stared down at my apple pie and stabbed it with my fork. “Travis isn’t worth my energy.” “Yeah. He’s not, but deserves to pay for everything he did to you.” Emma leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand, and lowered her voice like she kept on thinking about the missed opportunity. “Nick handed you the perfect chance on a silver platter. You could have made Travis suffer. Instead you just stood there.” “I only went up to him because I needed answers,” I said quietly. The lump in my throat made it hard to speak. “I needed to hear why he started sleeping with Lily the same night our bond formed. I wanted some kind of explanation… but he didn’t care. He never cared.” A single tear slipped down my cheek before I could stop it. Then before I knew something cold and st

Chapter: 004- stay away from herNick’s POV I told myself last night was a mistake. A careless slip. Something that should never have touched the years of loyalty I shared with Noah. But the memory refused to leave. Every time I closed my eyes I saw her again. The soft weight of her body under my hands, the way her full hips moved, the broken little sounds she made when she asked me to take the pain away. Abby was off-limits. Noah had made that rule clear more times than I could count. Yet when she looked at me with those tear-filled eyes and begged, something inside me that I usually kept locked down broke open. I dragged a hand through my hair and slammed my fist against the wall. It never should have happened. A knock at the door cut through the noise in my head. “Nick?” It was Noah. I opened the door. He walked straight in, eyes moving over the living room like he was hunting for proof. “Left my gloves here,” he said, but the excuse was thin. He disappeared upstairs, came back holding a

Chapter: 003- Beat friends betrayalAbby’s pov “The Guest room. Left closet. Hurry!” Nick barked the orders like I already knew every corner of his house. I gripped the railing with both hands, my full body still sore and heavy from last night. Every step felt twice as hard. Heavy footsteps pounded outside. Noah was here. Oh god. Nick locked the front door in one swift motion and pointed up the stairs. “Upstairs. End of the hallway,” he whispered, then cursed under his breath. “Move.” I scrambled up the steps as fast as my thick thighs and aching body would allow. Pain shot through me with every movement. It felt like I was dragging extra weight up those stairs. A loud knock rattled the door, followed by my brother’s familiar voice. “Nick, open up. I need to return your pants.” I slammed the guest room door shut behind me. The closet. The closet. Clutching the blanket tighter around my soft, full body, I took a step forward—and my ankle twisted under my weight. I hit the floor hard with a soft thud. P
